I love this campsite! It is close to the lake and most importantly to the showers & restroom. You can have a picnic and go swimming at Lake McDonald nearby. The nightly show at the amphitheater is very informative & interesting as well.

Liked the location of the campground in the park. Loop C had a path leading to Rocky Point Trail which offers less busy Lake McDonald beaches than Apgar. However, every time we wanted a shower we had to drive and park in the picnic area. Then hike up stairs to the only 3 showers for the entire campground, which usually had only cold water. The campground needs to add showers to the other loops. There was a black bear that frequented our campsite, they should probably work on relocating them if they are reliably there, as we were told. The next camper may not be so careful. Word to the wise, a reservation at Fish Creek does not get you on Going to the sun road! Yes you are already in the park but there is a second checkpoint after the West Entrance! They will turn you around.

While the actual campsites were nice, C098 and C097, the only showers available were in the A loop. And only 2 showers were working, without hot or even warm water. That's 2 showers for the entire Fish Creek campground.

Well managed, very clean and very welcoming. My only minor complaint would be a lack of dishwashing facilities.

Lovely treed campground. Must go hikes: avalanche creek and hidden lake.
Thunderstorm came in so be prepared for all weather.

Nice campground. The shower facilities were pretty rough, but the bathrooms were clean and the campground was well maintained.

Only problem was no hot water for the whole time we were there. Cold showers were very uncomfortable.
